slow cooker. even the cheapest cuts of meat come out really tender. Plus of course you prepare it all hours before and leave to cook so no more coming in starving and calling a take away or stopping off at a shop of a micro ready meal thus saving pennies

weirdly my best moneysaving purchase was also my biggest and most stupid purchase! I bought an iphone last year, i was nearly 9 grand in debt,but decided it was a really good idea to pay 269 quid for a phone and sign up for a 45 quid a month contract, that was my light bulb moment, got home from the shop and thought what the hell have i done. But if it wasnt for that phone i think i would still be spending like a pillock, i spend hours on the internet on it (all inclusive internet minutes) and found this site, which has been my saving grace in paying off my debt, now i hope to be debt free by this october.

my best buy was my three tier steamer. i used to have all four rings going
with4 different pans of vegetables. But with the steamer the meal
can all be cooked in one go. meat on the bottom, potatoes on the next and
all the veg in the top layer. The saving on electric mujst be major.

The British Gas guy who tried to convince me to sign up to his gas tariff even mentioned him the other day, before I was about to use him myself as a reason to do it via cashback and not by a commission chasing door to door salesman!

our best buy ever has to be the pair of hair clippers that OH bought for £9.99 from Argos 15 years ago........he has only had to pay for a barber once in all that time.......and DS who is now 12 has had many a home hair cut too.....these clippers have paid for themselves many many times over.....

....DD who is 14, thankfully has escaped them though......and I am not so extreme with my moneysaving ways to go for the GI Jane look myself

Interesting thread.....mines the clothes pulley we bought earlier this year, it hangs above the staircase. Its been a godsend, we must have saved pounds by not having to run the dryer anymore.
Then the magimix, and the yogurt maker!!

How this site works

We think it's important you understand the strengths and limitations of the site. We're a journalistic website and aim to provide the best MoneySaving guides, tips, tools and techniques, but can't guarantee to be perfect, so do note you use the information at your own risk and we can't accept liability if things go wrong.

This info does not constitute financial advice, always do your own research on top to ensure it's right for your specific circumstances and remember we focus on rates not service.

Do note, while we always aim to give you accurate product info at the point of publication, unfortunately price and terms of products and deals can always be changed by the provider afterwards, so double check first.

We don't as a general policy investigate the solvency of companies mentioned (how likely they are to go bust), but there is a risk any company can struggle and it's rarely made public until it's too late (see the Section 75 guide for protection tips).

We often link to other websites, but we can't be responsible for their content.

Always remember anyone can post on the MSE forums, so it can be very different from our opinion.

MoneySavingExpert.com is part of the MoneySupermarket Group, but is entirely editorially independent. Its stance of putting consumers first is protected and enshrined in the legally-binding MSE Editorial Code.
